About Factory Racing Organic Brake Pads for Formula
Gorilla Brakes Factory Racing Organic brake pads for Formula use an ultra-soft, high-friction organic compound bonded to a silver back plate. They are engineered to deliver instant bite, ultra-quiet braking, and refined modulation.
This compound is race-focused and prioritises braking feel and silence over longevity. No bedding-in process is required — full performance is available from the first lever pull.
Factory Racing Organic brake pads are optimised for dry riding. In wet, muddy, gritty, or abrasive conditions, pad wear will be extremely fast.
These pads can be used with Formula trail, enduro, downhill, and e-MTB brake systems. Due to the ultra-soft compound, wear rate will be significantly faster than other Factory Racing compounds.
